Add the fua configfs attribute and module parameter to allow
configuring if the device supports FUA or not. Using this attribute
has an effect on the null_blk device only if memory backing is enabled
together with a write cache (cache_size option).

This new attribute allows configuring a null_blk device with a write
cache but without FUA support. This is convenient to test the block
layer flush machinery.
